A member asked:
If hpv, which is not in the hpv vaccine, enters the body, does the body produce immunity to it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are more than 200 HPV subtypes. About 40 of these are spread via sexual transmission. Only 6 of these produce ovarian cancer. In the majority of cases, (94%) people clear the infection with no intervention within 6 months. Some infections last longer can cause persistent warts requiring treatment. Immunity is produced against the subtypes which are effectively cleared.
